It’s About the Journey, not the Destination???

Parenting as a single mom 1 Minute

I tend to disagree with this one. I am trying to focus on the day by day survival of parenting, yes.. but, in the big scheme of things, I’m really wanting my kids to “become” if you know what I’m saying.

It’s about that GOALS.. I have goals for them. To me, that is the “destination.”

  1. Responsible
  2. Accountable
  3. Respectful
  4. Obedient
  5. Loving
  6. Kind
  7. Helpful
  8. Calm
  9. Compassionate
  10. Empathetic

These are things I must work on within me also, if I expect them from my children.

Working towards them, always striving to be better than yesterday.

Frustration quickly sets in, when in the midst of if all. Trying to do better there also.

One.day.at.a.time.

Just trying to keep it together... This single parenting opportunity is amazing, thrilling, exhausting, rewarding, and fun. I'm not interested in merely surviving, but thriving in the process. It's about personal growth, but also teaching the children to accept who they are, where they are, but always strive to be their best they can be.
